General Discussion

Well there's the time in a modern-ish 70's campaign where my character and another hauled a corpse wrapped up in an area rug for about an hour in the middle of a desert while wearing tinfoil hats. We were going to pretend we were extremely high and unhinged alien believers since we were super close to Area 51 if anybody stopped and tried talking to us in the hopes that they'd leave us alone.

That was fun, especially when we finally made it back to the van and the other characters and had to explain ourselves.

not dnd specifically but i play pathfinder as a changeling witch with prehensile ten foot long hair with a rabbit familiar who may be the great evil in our campaign. i made a dumb mistake and got myself killed ahaha and our dm gave me the choice to either pass on or stick around while the rest of the party got their butts kicked.

i came back.

as the rabbit.

with ten foot long prehensile fur and all the spells i had learned so far.

i wish i'd stayed the rabbit now bc that would have been so much fun fsvhsh

@Turtlel
Oh absolutely, haha!

We had originally dragged him from the nearby town where we, uh, indirectly caused his death (a long story that involves my tiefling pretending to be an alien and some drugs) so we could throw him out into the road. We wanted the convoys going in and out of Area 51 to stop so we could ambush the guys and steal their uniforms/vehicle, you know?

Well apparently while we were gone, the other characters figured out that there's a mountain we could hike up and get down into the base easily from. We brought the dead guy there for nothing and we ended up just shoving him in a shallow pit literally 5 fit away from the road.

Still worth if for the laughs and mental image though!

This is from pathfinder but uh.... close enough I suppose :P

I don't remember this very well since it was from last year, but basically my party had to go into a public spa or something to find someone. We had disguises, and my familiar lizard was disguised as an electric lizard.
At some point, I decided to wash my lizard's disguise off, so I tried to dip it in the water, completely forgetting it was electric. Everyone else saw me trying to put this "electric lizard" in the water and ran screaming.

So the party's fighter knocked me out with a box to stop me causing any more trouble. Just straight up said "I knock Soapy out with a crate!"


Additionally, the first time this group ever played Pathfinder: could very easily beat a young black dragon under ten turns, took about twenty or so turns to beat a spider. No one was rolling very well that day :V

well, it wasn't exactly D&D but i was playing the burserker, this system had the possibility for near exponential rage generation, because of this, i just have to wait a few turns and take some damage, and wiht 1 punch i could send someone roughly 250 feet in the air and through the roof of a tavern. don't **** off Silicate.

Oh boy I gotta share the time an npc broke our campaign

Ok so in my first campaign, it was wild. Half the party was dead and we were desperate for more strength. So the dm gave us a lizardman barbarian friend named Kapesk. Except he was Powerful. And capable of killing the party singlehandedly because we didn't really know how barbarians worked. This was our very first campaign. Anyways with half the party dead, what was left was to be sent to a temple to get some artifacts or whatever and learn about Strahd ((yes this was the curse of strahd campaign)) and apparently there was artifacts or something that could give eternal life or whatever and so this lizardman, who was too strong for three people to kill, ended up killing whoever was left, and using the artifacts for himself, becoming I think like a lich wizard or warlock I can't remember it was a while ago but he ended up killing strahd and became the big bad, making the campaign unwinnable

And so, that is the story of Kapesk, the npc that accidentally killed our campaign. I think about him a lot XD

It was our second session, we were a party of five (druid, paladin, cleric, and two rogues) (our barbarian dude missed that session), and we were making our way through a jungle in our search for some artifact or something. It was dull. We're going through map square after map square, rolling checks and moving on, until we get to one and the dm tells us that we hear "a strange rumbling" and "something very big moving towards you" and tells us all to make stealth checks. Now, I know what's about to happen and I know it won't be good, but thankfully the first four people pass with flying colors and we're safe. Until the cleric rolls.

And he finds himself standing in the clearing, face to face with a t-rex.

So naturally, we have to roll initiative, and things...well, things happen. I won't recall the whole story because it took up the whole session, but some details are: the other rogue (not me) partially died (he was okay though); the cleric very narrowly missed being eaten; the paladin just hung out in a tree and shot spells at it; I threw both my knives and then ran for dear life; and the druid turned into a spider and tried to poison it, and I think he slightly died too.

In the end we bested the beast, and the DM just had this funny look of shock on his face when we did because we were all level 2, and this was a CR8 opponent, and apparently that wasn't really a normal thing? If I recall, he said that he'd expected us to just, you know, run away, like normal people, but hey! It all worked out. We all leveled up after that, too.
